Proverbs 3:12-17

¹²I say that because it is the people whom Yahweh loves that he corrects/reproves, just like parents correct/reprove their sons whom they love.

¹³Yahweh is pleased with those who become wise and have good understanding.

¹⁴Being wise and having good understanding is worth more than silver, better than gold.

¹⁵Being wise is more precious than ◄jewels/precious stones►; there is nothing that you could desire that would be as valuable as wisdom.

¹⁶On the one hand, wisdom PRS enables you to live a long life, and on the other hand, wisdom enables you to become rich and to be honored.

¹⁷If you are wise, your life will be pleasant, and things will go well for you.
